Farmer's best omelette; breakfast burrito
Deepali P.

Everything we ate here was phenomenal. The omelette had Brussels sprouts in it and tasted really good, never had them in an omelette before. I was skeptical of the maple tahini but that was a bit hit. The coffee here is also really good. The restaurant is really popular and when we ordered it said 25 min wait and we ended up wasting about 45 min before we got our food. The staff was definitely overwhelmed by how busy it was but they were doing their best and were very apologetic.

Way overdue review! Visited for breakfast in the beginning of September due to having a voucher for a free meal or money off provided by The Carriage House Inn across the street. Coffee and food was delicious! Highly recommend the French toast topped with fresh fruit and the bacon. Sausage was a patty and average. Looking forward to going back the next time I am in the area!

Wall decor near the restroom

Delicious breakfast spread and drinks. Lots of seating, just have to find one and claim. While your partner lines up to order. We had chicken sandwich and omelette, both delicious! We both at the speckled hen latte which hit the spot. Very busy place, but pretty good 20 mins wait after ordering. I would recommend for sure!!

Lancaster quiche

What a lovely restaurant! My husband and I actually stayed at the restaurant owners' Airbnb and got a voucher to this restaurant. We had a delicious brunch. I ordered the Lancaster quiche, which came with a side salad. The quiche wasn't too heavy and had a good flavor. I really liked the crust. It was a good portion as well. The servers are friendly, and there's plenty of seating inside. Would definitely come back here and try the French toast next time we are in the area!

My family and I got vouchers from our stay at Verdant View Farm to have breakfast here on a Sunday morning. We were seated upstairs after we packed our orders. The coffee was delicious and my spicy BLT on a cheesy bagel was so delicious. This place is a solid breakfast and brunch place.

Best coffee I've had in PA After spending the night in Lancaster I was searching for a spot for brekkie. The speckled hen called my name. And I am so glad it did because wow! This is a must stop spot in my opinion. I decided to order the avocado toast, an iced strawberry matcha, and a hot mocha. This avocado toast was not only beautiful, but it was so incredibly delicious! The flavors mingled perfectly and I always love a nice bite of pickled red onion! The matcha was also fabulous. The perfect color!! And a fabulous flavor to go with it. As for this mocha, I genuinely don't know if I've ever had a better espresso! And I'm from Seattle so I consider myself to know a few things. The foam was so think that the coffee art didn't move when I took a sip. Jaw drop moment for me. The inside was nice and bright. Lots of seating! Definitely would stop by if I had the opportunity again!

Gingerbread house lattes

I stopped by here earlier today with my family for our morning coffee. Whenever we go on vacation, we try to visit a new coffee shop each morning, and on this day we decided to head to the Speckled Hen since it was close by. The shop is located on East Main Street and has parking on both the side and the back. From the outside, I did not expect it to be very large, but the interior ended up being surprisingly spacious. The main area includes the ordering counter along with display cases and a Christmas tree, as it was right before the holiday. The cashier was especially nice to my kids and told us about a play area located in one of the side rooms, which we immediately headed toward. That room could seat around twenty four people and had wood floors along with black metal and dark wood chairs. The real win for us, though, was the kids play area. It was set up like a miniature version of the coffee shop, complete with play food and desserts, which kept our kids happily occupied while we enjoyed our drinks. For my coffee this morning, I went with the Gingerbread House Latte, and my wife chose the same. The coffee was very good. You got a solid coffee flavor up front, followed by a clear gingerbread note, and then it finished with a pleasant sweetness that lingered for a bit without becoming overpowering. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my wife and I enjoyed our coffees, and while I did not eat anything myself, my wife enjoyed her berry Nutella croissant and my daughter really liked her parfait.

A surprising find for some gluten free and vegan gals! This was something like you would find in a more urban area. We found our table and perused the menu before heading to the counter to place our order. Got our little buzzers and took a seat.... And then they brought the food to us! I got the sweet potato bowl with GF toast. My friend got the vegan burrito. We both loved our choices. The coffee was excellent, too. We got there as soon as they opened and it was completely empty.... It soon filled up and the kids play area was right behind us. We soon found ourselves shouting to hear one another. Maybe not the best place to sit if you don't have littles with you. I'd love to come back to try some other dishes. They all looked so good.

Inside shop

Came in for coffee and pastry and unfortunately really hated it. Coffee is not bad, but pastries are awful. The most mediocre baking I have ever had. On top of it they messed up our coffee order and we had to wait literally forever. I don't know if this is the only spot in town...it was extremely overcrowded. Ambience and decor, however, were not bad.

Latte

Food was delish and lots of options. Comfy seating inside or outside. Staff was very attentive and friendly.

Outside Seating

Dave and I had one day to spare after graduation in Maryland, so we took a ride to Pennsylvania Dutch Country. We needed to find a place to eat outside with Freckles and we came across the Speckled Hen Coffee Place in Strasburg. This cafe is charming and is located on Main Street. You order at the counter and then you get your own coffee. It's the kind of place that you can relax, read, do school work etc. We both had the western omelettes that were delicious and I had home fries on the side and Dave grits, When our food was ready the servers brought it outside for us along with a water bowl for Freckles. We ate and watched the cars and buggies go by. I love the beautiful green fields and horses and buggies. I even saw the Host Farm which is now a Hershey's property. Here's where I went first my honeymoon a long, long, time ago. We hopefully will return to this beautiful place with its perfect temperatures again.

AMAZING PLACE!!! MORE AMAZING PEOPLE!!! I am a tour operator…read moreand had a group at Tanger Outlet Lancaster. Long and the short... I had a client in need of seat, and an outlet for his portable O2 in a standing room only Butter & Bean. So, one of the staff hears my plea for help and Jessie, the owner comes out. She makes arrangements for not only a seat near an outlet but grabs an extension cord to allow for some movement. The patrons in the entire cafe made way for Jessie and my client. I ask if we can just chill for an hour or so, till he gets charged up and she wouldn't hear of it. "Stay as long as you need to", she said. So, I bought my client a coffee and a sandwich, which was amazing, bought some coffees for those that made space for him, and invited the entire bus group to join us and support Butter and Bean. And we sure did. The food and coffee were great, but the spirit, the vibe and the whole experience I needed to share. Oh, did I mention it was Black Saturday, November 25, 2023, at 1230p!!! Who does that??? Well, Butter and Bean does! So, get great coffee and really good eats, and support a business that we will proudly support in every way.

I saw this coffee shop the last time I went to Lancaster about a year ago as I randomly stopped at…read morethe outlets - unplanned. This time around I made a point to visit the outlets and was trying to find a coffee/breakfast spot to go to and this was the perfect location. It's literally in the outlets and it has a decent food menu and large drink menu. They have a regular menu as well as a specials menu. They cook food to order as well which was perfect. They had 3 people working - one cooked, one took orders and one was making drinks. We didn't have to wait long at all for our order. I ordered a Cinnamon Toast Crunch chai from the specials and it was delicious. My mom had a drip coffee and she really enjoyed it. We both ordered breakfast sandwiches and they were very good - the triple b - and added bacon. The croissant we got on the sandwich was very good! The garlic aioli tasted great but honestly could forgo on a breakfast sandwich probably . The eggs were cooked perfectly! Overall there's plenty of seating - a nice cozy vibe and it was clean inside. Lots of dessert cases and to go options. All around it's good if you're running in to pick up something quick but also you can sit and stay awhile and enjoy your food and coffee! Definitely check it out if you're shopping - or even if you're not!
